(Verse)
Am I a soldier of the cross,
A follower of the Lamb,
And shall I fear to own His cause,
Or blush to speak His Name?

(Chorus)
And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown!
Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes we shall wear a crown
And when the battle’s over! we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem
Wear a crown, wear a crown
Wear a bright and shining crown
And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown
In the New Jerusalem

(Verse)
Must I be carried to the skies
On flow’ry beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sailed through bloody seas?

(Chorus)
And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown!
Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes we shall wear a crown
And when the battle’s over! we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem
Wear a crown, wear a crown
Wear a bright and shining crown
And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown
In the New Jerusalem

(Verse)
Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace
To help me on to God?

(Chorus)
And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown!
Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes we shall wear a crown
And when the battle’s over! we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem
Wear a crown, wear a crown
Wear a bright and shining crown
And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown
In the New Jerusalem

(Verse)
Sure I must fight if I would reign,
Increase my courage, Lord;
I’ll bear the toil, endure the pain
Supported by Thy Word

(Chorus)
And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown!
Yes, we shall wear a crown! Yes we shall wear a crown
And when the battle’s over! we shall wear a crown
In the new Jerusalem
Wear a crown, wear a crown
Wear a bright and shining crown
And when the battle’s over, we shall wear a crown
In the New Jerusalem
